Tupiza near the Bolivia Argentinian border is Butch Cassidy Terratory, It´s where he spent his last few days and where the infamous last stand took place.

You can imagine that very little has changed since he went round holding up banks.

There is of course only one way to experiance the surroundings as Butch and Sundance did and that is on horseback.

The landscape is red and mountainous and it has fantastic names like diabalo de puerto (the gates of hell) Green interventions are provided by the cactus which are dotted around.

I´m undecided whether I identify more with Butch or Sundance but what I do know is that after five hours of riding I am walking more like John Wayne!
